Hello, my reading friends! It’s Ani. I’m so happy you’re here at my house. Are you ready for a fun story? Let’s think about the people and things we really love. Who do you love the most? Today, we’re going to read about a little boy and someone very special to him in the story “I Love My Dragon.” If you have the book, you can read along with me!
The story “I Love My Dragon” is written by Jody Moore and has beautiful pictures by Howard McWilliam. In this story, a little boy has a dragon as his best friend. They’ve been friends since the boy was a baby!
The boy and his dragon do everything together. They love listening to music and reading stories. Once upon a time, there was a dragon who loved to read too! They also enjoy swimming in the pool and playing at the beach. They share yummy snacks and juice, and they go on exciting adventures.
The boy and his dragon are very kind. They help take care of the boy’s baby brother. They say, “Bye and good night!” to the little brother and make sure he sleeps well. They have so much fun together, especially when they pretend to fly high in the sky!
The boy loves his dragon very much! When you have some free time and use your big imagination, magical things can happen. I hope you enjoyed our story today. Remember, you can always have fun with your imagination. See you next time for another story!
Draw Your Own Dragon: Use your imagination to draw a picture of your very own dragon. Think about what colors it might be, how big or small it is, and what special features it has. Does it have wings, or maybe a long tail? Once you’ve drawn your dragon, share your picture with a friend or family member and tell them a story about an adventure you and your dragon might go on together.
Dragon Adventure Role Play: Pretend you are the boy from the story and your friend or a stuffed animal is your dragon. Think of a fun adventure you can go on together, like exploring a jungle or flying over a city. Use your imagination to act out the adventure. What do you see? What sounds do you hear? How do you feel during your adventure?
Love and Friendship Discussion: Sit in a circle with your classmates or family and take turns sharing who or what you love the most, just like the boy loves his dragon. Why do you love them? How do they make you feel? This will help you think about the special people and things in your life and how they make your world magical.
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:
